Beschreibung
Ceramic fibers are produced from fused silicon and aluminum oxides by a centrifugation process. White, twisted aluminosilicate fibers with high temperature resistance, low thermal conductivity and good chemical resistance are obtained. Since pure fiber cannot be processed into textiles, organic fibers must be added to enable spinning. The organic part is about 15% and burns out on the first heating. Additionally, textile products are reinforced with a twine of glass threads or a wire made of chrome-nickel steel (inconel). They have excellent resistance to sudden temperature fluctuations. They are resistant to water, fats, oils, liquid metals and most acids
